Surface roughness profile and values which occurs according to the type of machining, show a structure that triggers the fatigue damage mechanism which starts with formation of cracks on the surfaces. In this study, aluminum 6061-T913 alloy was processed by turning with different cutting parameters, then surface roughnesses were measured and these values were used to theoretical calculation of fatigue life depending on surface roughness. Test specimens prepared from Al6061 alloy 40 mm in diameter and 200 mm in length for turning with different cutting parameters. Then, roughness of the machined surfaces was measured and fatigue life was calculated and evaluated with the "√𝑎𝑟𝑒𝑎" model. When the cutting speed is increased the surface roughness is reduced and also increased by increment of feed rate. Theoretical calculations showed fatigue damage can be started and occured at higher stress values by decreasing surface roughness.
